Text: The Great Power Controversy_Chapter 262 Zhongfu
When the tent leader led a dozen knights to attack from the north side of the level. The 1,800 soldiers stationed at the checkpoint are still eating and drinking. Because he grabbed a lot of poultry meat from the common people, tonight, the soldiers of the Duchy who did not eat meat for a long time were full of appetite at that time. One by one, they ate with mouths full of oil and gobbled them up.
These shed managers don't know, and he doesn't care, and now he still takes stealing money as his first goal.
The dozen or so cavalry led by the tent chief soon kicked up a large amount of dust, plus the more than ten large flags made of underwear, and the sound of drums. This made them, who only had more than ten people, even become unpredictable. No one knows how many cavalry are hidden in the billowing dust. Moreover, the ten banners took the lead, making it seem that there were more than 100,000 troops of the Beichen Army here.
The sound of the vibrating war horses galloping was naturally a surprise to the army of the country where the sun did not set when they were eating and drinking. The commander of his unit soon came to the north of the checkpoint. While observing the enemy's situation, he sent an order for the soldiers in the checkpoint to assemble as soon as possible. Be ready to fight at any time to resist the charge of the cavalry of the Beichen Army. It's just that the general is thinking about another issue in his heart. Looking at the dust billowing in front of him, I am afraid that there are a lot of cavalry of the Beichen Army who have come. Even if there are only a few hundred of these cavalrymen, they can definitely tear all their men to pieces. You must know that everyone is just setting up a checkpoint, and there is nothing like a camp that can stop the cavalry charge. That's a disaster for the infantry.
Moreover, watching the dust raised by the cavalry of the Beichen Army charging is definitely more than a thousand people. With so many cavalry, how could more than 1,100 people under his command be able to withstand it. Then you need to think about another question for yourself, whether you want to lead the withdrawal or surrender?
Anyway, it will definitely not be able to fight, and the gap between infantry and cavalry is too great. If you escape, you and your guards also have a few war horses, and you may be able to escape. But what about his own men, all of them are infantry, how can they outrun a four-legged war horse. He lost all the troops under his command, and even if he fled back to the city of Wentil, according to Galahad's temperament, he would definitely not be happy. In contrast, surrender should be the best option for yourself.
As long as he surrenders, then it is possible that Beichen Kingdom will not kill himself and others. Surrendering to the enemy when he is unable to resist him does not hinder his prestige in the monarchy. Because, that's how the war in Europe is. When you can't beat the enemy, or when your own troops have suffered heavy losses, surrendering to the enemy is the wisest option. Maybe the people in China are still following their own path?
The head of the shed led a dozen or so people, each carrying a red underwear flag, and a branch of the boss on the tail of the war horse. The branches of the trees swept up all the dust on the ground, sending up endless clouds of smoke.
Looking at the thick yellow dust behind him, the head of the shed was still very satisfied with his results. It's just that there are only a dozen or so people on my side, and it will take hundreds to see the enemy. What if the enemy swears to resist to the death, and when the time comes, should he continue to charge or run away?
At this time, the chief of Yishi also took a few of his men to the side of the wooden box in the middle of the road. Now all the soldiers of the country where the sun never sets are attracted by the head of the shed in the north. There was not a single enemy in or around the road, it was empty.
Soon, Yi Shi Chang stuffed the prepared wooden shelves under the box. Then he tied the rope again, and then beckoned the rest of the soldiers to bring the war horse over. A few soldiers quickly brought the war horse slowly, although the speed was slow, but it was a good thing not to attract people's attention. You must know that there are no soldiers around the country where the sun never sets, but there are still thousands of people in the country where the sun never sets.
If these ordinary people suddenly have the wrong tendon and suddenly find themselves and others, then this great money-picking operation can be regarded as completely destroyed. Fortunately, until a few people moved the dozen or so war horses, they were still not found. This made more than a dozen Beichen soldiers very happy, and now they have countless money in front of their eyes, and they are still in the middle of the road.
What does that mean? Ah, are they all good hunters? It's actually put in the middle of the road openly, and it's just to seduce yourself to pick it up. The most important thing is that the money is picked up, and the big guy doesn't have to hand it in at all. The Beichen army stipulated that the money and property captured and looted during the war were divided equally between the court and the soldiers. But there is no rule that you have to hand over a part of the money you pick.
More than a dozen people were busy all the time, and everything was quickly ready. The large box on top of the wooden shelf is firmly tied to the wooden shelf. On each side of the frame were four ropes, which were used by the soldiers to pull the frame on horseback. After that, the soldiers all turned over and got on their horses and tied ropes to their arms.
Two people are in charge of a large wooden box, which is not easy, but it is not a difficult thing either. Under the manipulation of the soldiers, the war horse slowly walked towards the position where it had been. Because of the wooden shelves, it was very difficult for the large box to move slowly. It's a bit slow, but it's better than not being able to pull it. Besides, the soldiers of the Beichen Army haven't mentioned the horse speed yet, and they can't get up fast if they want to.
In the past, when leading the horses, the soldiers were able to ensure that the horses did not make a sound, but now they can't. If the horse wants to pull up the heavy wooden box, it must run with all his strength. Otherwise, you won't be able to pull these boxes at all.
As soon as this voice thought about it, it was immediately alarmed by the people of the country where the sun never sets not far away...
Besides, the head of the shed and a dozen or so people were about to rush to the front of the phalanx of the army of the Sun Never Sets, and the difference between the two armies was only a few hundred steps. This distance is too dangerous, if it weren't for the smoke and dust, and the sky is not very bright, maybe the dozen or so people would have been seen by the enemy a long time ago.
However, now you really can't rush anymore, and if you rush again, it is very likely that the enemy will see through it. What should I do, I don't know if the brothers have done it well. If you do it well, send a signal so that you can let yourself know. If you don't do it well, it's all over if you rush it again.
Seeing that he had rushed to a distance of five hundred paces in front of the phalanx of the army on which the sun never set, the head of the shed turned his mind and immediately thought of a compromise method. Hurriedly said to the people around him: "Go, go back and forth in a circle in the smoke, so that the enemy can't see us, and let them know that we are still there!" “
The soldier next to him suddenly understood what his head meant, and in a blink of an eye, the swelling master had already manipulated the war horse to turn around. So, the soldier also hurried behind him. The rest of the people are not stupid either, and they always pay attention to the movements of the people around them. Soon, the dozen or so people led by the head of the shed completed the turn. Then, it has been going back and forth in circles in the smoke, so that people can't see the real and the false.
The commander of the country where the sun never sets was also puzzled, originally seeing that the cavalry of the Beichen Kingdom had rushed three or four hundred meters away, he was planning to escape with his personal guards. Who knew that the cavalry of the Beichen Kingdom was actually not moving forward. The yellow dust was still stained in the billowing sky, and there was the sound of the war horse trampling the earth. The commander was sure in his heart that the cavalry of the Beichen Army must be hidden in the dust. Just, why would they do that?
There are definitely not a few cavalry of the Beichen Army who can make such a big amount of dust, how can they stop and not continue to charge? Could it be that they just came to play a circle, or did they not know that the war horse was more lethal when it charged? Well, I think too much about myself....
The cavalry of the Beichen Army hid in the dust and did not dare to come out, so it is certain that the number of cavalry of the Beichen Army should not be too much. Otherwise, they will directly rush over in one breath and cut their own troops. As for why there is so much dust, the governor of the country where the sun never sets can't figure it either. It's just that none of this prevents you from making judgments. I still stay here honestly, as long as the Beichen cavalry does not attack, then I will have nothing to do. Even if you are killed, you can't rush to the front, and as soon as you rush the army formation, you will disperse, and even if the enemy's cavalry is only a few dozen, you can completely defeat your own troops.
In the eyes of this commander, as long as he does not lose his troops, he will definitely not have any trouble. On the contrary, if he moved thousands of people, he would have caused the death of more than 800 people under his command. Da Shuai definitely didn't mind taking his head to comfort those dead brothers.
For a while, both sides fell into a time of calm together. The cavalry of the Beichen Army, under the leadership of the head of the shed, hid in the dust of the sky, running back and forth. And because the sun never sets the army, because they didn't know the reality of the Beichen army, they didn't dare to step forward at all, for fear of suffering heavy losses.
And the chief of the first is now leading the war horse to run, because the last step of picking up money by himself and others was discovered by the enemy. These people came specifically to rob their own money, so the soldiers of the Beichen Army immediately hit the buttocks of the war horses with the back of their knives one by one, and ran quickly into the distance. The wooden box between the two knights, constantly jolting on the wooden frame, always had a feeling of wanting to fall.
However, the speed of the war horse is very fast, and it is not at all something that the people of the country where the sun never sets can catch up. Yishi Chang took the men and horses, pulled a lot of money, and quickly ran away. In a short time, it completely disappeared into the dim sky. Countless people in the country where the sun never sets can only look at the dust that rises and sigh.
Damn, those gangs in the army are stupid, they took the money from the big guys, and they didn't guard it well, and they were taken away by others in a daze. What a bunch of stupid people, stupid stupid to death, how could they not all die.
The chief ran away with the men and horses for a long time, and then he remembered that he forgot to signal the shack master to retreat. In desperation, he had to send another knight to run back to give a signal.
And at this moment, the head of the shed has already greeted the guy and the group of bastard ancestors under him. How long has it been, and this group of people still hasn't signaled, is it so difficult to go to the side of the road to get money? Haven't done it for so long?
Just as the head of the shed was getting angry, suddenly a good-eyed soldier saw an arrow flying in the sky in the distance. The soldier was stunned for a moment, and immediately shouted loudly: "Boss, the brothers of Yishi have completed their mission, we should withdraw!" ”
The head of the shed didn't see the arrows flying, and immediately asked suspiciously, "Boy, how do you know that Yishi's brother has done it?" ”
"I saw an arrow flash in the sky in the distance!"
"It's a day, you don't think the stars are arrows, do you? Damn, there's so much dust around here, you can see it! The head of the shed immediately yelled at the soldier.
When he turned his head, he found an arrow flying in the sky in the distance. At this time, in the sight of the head of the shed, the dust was a little thinner, and it was precisely because of this that I saw the flying arrow. The head of the shed immediately shouted: "Brothers, the bastard is finally done, let's withdraw!" ”
After saying that, the head of the shed took the lead in riding his war horse and ran towards the place where the arrow flew.
Zhao Guangliang behind him was speechless for a moment, and he was wronged by the buddy just now. Needless to say, what the soldier said was true, and he must have seen the arrows as well. It's just that he said it a little early....
Soon after, the brothers in the Tabernacle met again at the place where they had rested. The brothers who looked at Yishi picked up all the big boxes. The head of the shed and Zhao Guangliang immediately laughed, and they smiled very happily. Damn, it turns out that there is really a pie in the sky in the world, and the big guy scouted for the enemy and picked up a lot of money.
The soldiers of the whole shed did not stay here for too long, because it was still a little close to the checkpoint, and it would be better and safer to leave early.
Twenty or so people, pulling several large wooden boxes, soon rode war horses to a far place.
When the big guy opened the box, he saw that there were not only countless copper coins inside. There's even a lot of silver and gold mixed in. The silver of the white flowers, and the yellow and clear gold, are too obvious. It took more than 20 people more than half a day to clear out the money. There were more than 100 taels of gold, and nearly 700 taels of silver, and as for the copper coins, because there were too many, they could only be estimated at an approximate number. However, there must be 1.45 million at least.
All of them are counted as more than 3 million copper coins. This may only be a very small number in Xiao Chen's eyes, but in the eyes of ordinary soldiers, this number is too big. More than 3 million, even if it is a cent for 20 people, then everyone has 100,000 copper coins. Now the soldier is only a thousand copper coins a month, and the head of the shed may reach 1,005. But 100,000 copper coins have to be saved up by these gangs for several years.
The head of the shed looked at so much money and yelled: "Brothers, let's divide it equally!" When you get back to camp, send the money back home! Damn, our fathers also let their wives and children lose their families! ”
The rest of the soldiers were also overjoyed, laughing and shouting.
The money was not immediately divided, but only verbally for the time being. Among them, the head of the shed and Zhao Guangliang, the two of them divided the gold of one hundred taels equally. This is the common meaning of the big guys, without the head of the shed and Zhao Guangliang, how can the big guys have this opportunity to make a fortune. Even if there are the left, no one will be able to divide the hundreds of thousands.
The head of the shed and Zhao Guangliang are also not modest, after all, everyone is a brother on the battlefield, and what they say is a word, and it is difficult to chase the horse.
The next day, the head of the shed returned to the army with his subordinates, and for a time there was a rumor that the soldiers of the Beichen Army had picked up three million copper coins on the road. This can be regarded as surprising the soldiers of the Beichen Army and the soldiers of the country where the sun never sets.
Damn, why don't we have this luck, we picked up more than three million copper coins on the road. My day, ruthless!
Naturally, this matter cannot be concealed from the commander of Zhao Guangliang's cavalry army, but this army commander is also a cheerful person. For the money that soldiers pick up for nothing, they naturally will not be greedy for ink. Moreover, the army commander also asked Luo Cheng for a leave of absence for the shed where Zhao Guangliang was located, and asked them to bring the money to the rear. After all, on the front line, carrying so much money not only affects the battle, but if the battle is lost, the money will be wasted.
The head of the shed and the others are naturally like the admiration of their own military elders, like the water of the river, endlessly.
Since then, the main figures of the money picking incident recorded in the history books of the Beichen Dynasty have begun to retreat to the rear.
History of the Beichen Dynasty: The Beichen Dynasty was in the expansion of the principality, and the Duchy War did not fall on the same day. Among them, there are Zhang Shitong, a martyr of the Beichen Army, and Zhao Guangliang, a guard in front of the current emperor, and his robes. While spying on the enemy's situation, he picked up 3 million copper in the middle of the road. When it is the fortunate person in the world, there is no ancient, and there is no one after!
